Canadian Passport Application

Hi guys,

I'm actually just looking to apply for a Canadian passport from Canada. I have no travel plans at the moment, but figured some of you may be able to answer my questions as you would have gone through the process fairly recently.

My question has to do with including a Birth Certificare as part of the documentation package. I am wondering which type of Birth Certificate I need to include. I saw on the Vital Statistics Canada website that there are two types of Birth Certificates-the short form and the long form.

So, does anyone out there know the answer?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Greg

Short or long does not matter, as long as it has the raised/embossed stamp of your birth province's registrar.

If you have neither, get the long.

Thanks for your help agnelson. I'm going to get my application package assembled early next week. Cheers!
